It's not to long of a process. Thing that takes the longest is all the things you have to do before surgery such as all the health screenings and such after that it was a breeze hang in there sister you will be sleeved before ya know it. And on your new journey:-)

Im from herrin too! Its nice to hear and talk to people in the area near me. HattieSue, have u had any complications?

No maam I haven't had any real complications that werent normal. I had no pain after surgery i was natious the second day after surgery . Had probs with fluids at first but better with that now. Have you had surgery yet or are you in the process of getting sleeved. How awsome that we live in the same town. We should get together sometime lol

I haven't had the surgery done yet, just getting started. I have the psych eval, nurse assess, and nutrition class on friday. Im planning on going to st louis for my surgery though... just hoping for a laproscopic surgery!

Oh ya lapostropic for sure do u have a date yet

No date yet... i go for my psych eval, nutrition class, and nurse assessment this friday. I hope i know more information then... i am so excited and scared as hell. Not sure i could handle this feeling for a prolonged amount of time.

Girl I so agree and I haven't even attended the seminar yet lol im just happy my ****** bag husband us gone that didn't want me to do it is hone so now I can focus on myself I want to be happy and feel good about myself again I miss it I hate being miserable in my own body
